Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention provides a receiver for receiving the activation of a detector for fire, gas leak, etc. in each unit of a condominium, and sounds an alarm. This invention relates to an alarm sounding device for alarm equipment that can also sound an alarm in response to the activation of a sensor in a receiver in another dwelling unit determined by a signal line connection.

Conventionally, alarm equipment for apartment buildings that warns of fires and gas leaks involves installing a receiver (home monitor) in each dwelling unit that receives the activation of a detector such as a fire or gas leak and issues an alarm. However, in the event of a fire, gas leak, etc., it is necessary to set off the alarms on the receivers of not only the unit where the fire occurred, but also other units on the same floor, and even units on the floor directly above where there is a risk of fire spreading. be.

The present invention has been made in view of this point, and is an alarm system for an apartment complex in which each dwelling unit is equipped with a receiver that receives the activation of a detector such as a fire or a gas leak and sets off an alarm in each dwelling unit. As an alarm sounding device, the receivers of all dwelling units are connected to each other with a common line, and the receivers of only the same block, such as each floor, and the receivers of other blocks, such as the floors directly above or directly below, are signaled. Separate wires are used to connect them to each other, and when the own sensor is activated, the own alarm is sounded, and the signal wire to the receiver of another dwelling unit is shorted to low impedance, and the signal wire of the other receiver is low impedance. By sounding your own alarm when impedance is detected, it is possible to issue an alarm not only from your own sensor but also from the activation of sensors in other residences, thereby ensuring appropriate alarms in emergencies. The object of the present invention is to provide an alarm sounding device for alarm equipment which is sufficiently widespread for apartment buildings.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained based on the drawings.

The figure is a circuit diagram illustrating an embodiment of the present invention using fire alarm equipment as an example, and takes as an example an alarm equipment for a high-rise apartment building with 1st to nth floors.

First, to explain the configuration, m residential units are provided on each floor from the 1st floor to the nth floor, and each residential unit is Anm (n is 1
,2. . . . n is an integer, m is l indicating a residential unit on each floor, 2.
...integer of m). Each dwelling unit A n m is provided with a receiver 1. The configuration of this receiver 1 will be explained using the receiver in the second floor dwelling unit A21 as a representative. A common line terminal C that commonly connects the receivers 1 to a common signal line 2, and a first terminal that connects the receivers 1 only in the same block on the second floor, which are determined by floor, to each other by a signal line 3. The first signal line terminal of the receiver 1 on the first floor, which is the immediately lower floor of another adjacent block, and the second signal line terminal connected by the signal line 4 are connected. provided. Further, a fire detector 5 installed in the dwelling unit A, 1 is connected to the receiver 1 by a signal line, and a predetermined power voltage is supplied to the fire detector 5 from the power supply 6 of the receiver 1. A current detection circuit having a transistor Q1 is connected to the signal line of the fire detector 5, and the transistor Q is turned on by the line current flowing when the fire detector 5 is activated. A relay 7 is connected to the collector of the transistor Q1, and a relay 7 is connected to the collector of the transistor Q1.
A private room fire light 8 is connected in parallel with the alarm, and a buzzer 9 as an alarm is connected in parallel with the alarm. Transistor Q.

The relay contact 7a of the relay 7, which is energized by turning on, is connected between the first signal line terminal L1 and the common line terminal C. On the other hand, the first and second signal line terminals, L, are branch-connected to one end of a resistor R4 via diodes D, D, and a resistor R is connected to the other end of the resistor R4. Transistor Q2
A current detection circuit is provided, and a buzzer 9 is connected to the collector of the transistor Q through a diode D4, and a fire lamp 10 for another room is connected in parallel.

In addition, a transistor Q is turned on when the fire detector 5 is activated.
The collector of 1 is connected to the transistor Q via the diode D6.
, and when the transistor Q1 is turned on by the fire detector 5, the transistor Q! operation is prohibited. Furthermore, a signal line is drawn out from the collector side of the transistor Q1 to the outside of the dwelling unit A, 1, and is connected to a fire light 11 and a buzzer 12 for an outdoor alarm provided outside the dwelling unit. The configuration of the receiver 1 in dwelling unit A 11 is the same for other dwelling units.

Next, signal line connections between the dwelling units A11 to A nm will be explained.

First, in the embodiment shown in the figure, since the housing units on each floor are the same block, the first signal line terminal of each receiver 1 on the first to nth floors is the same as the first signal line terminal of the other receivers 1 on the same floor. They are mutually connected to one signal line terminal L1 by a signal line 3. On the other hand, with the fire alarm system shown in the figure, it is necessary to issue an alarm in other blocks that are directly above the floor where the fire occurred, so for example, each residential unit A1 on the first floor. The first signal line terminal A1m is led out to the second floor by the signal line 4, and connected to the residential unit A1. A signal line is connected to each of the second signal line terminals L2 in the receiver 1 of ~7m people.

The signal line connections for the floors immediately above are similarly connected from the second floor to the third floor, from the third floor to the fourth floor, .

Next, the effect will be explained.

Now, let's say that the apartment on the first floor is A8. If the fire detector 5 detects a fire and is activated, the contact of the fire detector 5 closes and a line current flows through the power supply 6, the resistor R8, and the fire detector 5, and this line current causes the transistor Q
, turns on and energizes the relay 7. At the same time, by turning on the transistor Q1, power is supplied to the room fire light 8 and the buzzer 9, and the sound of the buzzer 9 causes a fire alarm to be issued within the dwelling unit A11. Moreover, the output of transistor Q is
Since the fire light 11 and buzzer 12 provided outside the dwelling unit A are also supplied, the ringing of the buzzer 12 also issues a fire alarm outside the dwelling unit A.

On the other hand, the relay contact 7a is closed by the activation of the relay 7 by turning on the transistor Q, and the receiver 1 installed in the dwelling unit A 11
The first signal line terminal L1 and the common line terminal C are short-circuited to a low impedance. Such a short circuit to low impedance between the first signal line terminal L1 and the common line terminal C1 in dwelling unit A1, and other dwelling unit A1 on the first floor. ~A,m
and residential units A□~A on the second floor connected by signal line 4! The residential unit A1.
A line current flows through the receiver 1 of. As a result of the line current flowing through residential units A and H, which are operating due to the fire, the other residential units A1t to A1 on the first floor in the same block are
The receiver 1 at m is affected by the line current flowing through the signal line 3. For example, to explain the receiver circuit of dwelling unit A1m,
The line current flows from the current source 6 to the first signal line terminal via the resistors R, R, and the diode D, and the line current flows from the resistor R to the first signal line terminal.
Due to the voltage drop caused by 1, the transistor Q turns on, sounds the buzzer 9, and turns on the other room fire light 10, thereby informing the other dwelling unit A on the same floor that a fire has occurred in the dwelling unit A on the same floor. ~A, m can be used to know. On the other hand, on the second floor, which is directly above the floor where the fire occurred, the line current flows through the signal line 4 to the receiver 1 of the dwelling unit on the first floor that is detecting the fire, and the signal line 4 is connected to the receiver A of the dwelling unit on the second floor. □~A, the second signal line terminal L of the receiver 1 at m! Because it is connected to
A line current flows into the second signal line terminal Lt through the power supply resistor R, R, and diode D of the receiver 1, and the voltage generated in the resistor R1 turns on the resistor Q, and the buzzer 9 is turned on. sounds and lights up the fire light 1o in the other room.

Therefore, when a fire is detected in dwelling unit A11 on the 1st floor, a fire alarm is also issued within the dwelling unit at the receivers 1 of dwelling units A21 to Atm on the 2nd floor, which are located directly above, and other dwelling units in the same block or the floor immediately below are alerted. You can learn that a fire broke out in another apartment on the first floor.

Note that the above embodiment took fire alarm equipment as an example, but even when a gas leak detector is connected to the receiver in each dwelling unit, the above implementation can be applied except that a receiving circuit for the gas leak detector is provided. It will be exactly the same as the example.

As explained above, according to the present invention, an alarm system for alarm equipment in an apartment complex is provided in which each dwelling unit is equipped with a receiver that receives the activation of a detector such as a fire gas leak and sounds an alarm in each dwelling unit. As a ringing device, the receivers of all the dwelling units are connected to each other with a common line, and the receivers of only the same block, such as each floor, and the receivers of other blocks, such as those on the floor directly above or directly below, are connected by a signal line. When the sensor activates, it sounds its own alarm and short-circuits the signal line to other receivers to low impedance, and detects low impedance of the signal line by other receivers. Since the unit's own alarm will sound even when the alarm is activated, not only will the alarm be triggered by the activation of the unit's own sensor, but also the activation of the predetermined sensor in another unit will be alerted within the residence by connecting the signal line. Even if the alarm sound from the outdoor alarm in the dwelling unit where the fire occurred cannot be heard inside the dwelling unit, the alarm installed in the dwelling unit will sound in response to a fire or gas leak in another dwelling unit. In the event of an emergency, an appropriate and sufficient warning can be sent to the dwelling unit that requires the warning, and in the event of a fire or gas leak, fire extinguishing or evacuation activities can be quickly carried out in the apartment building. . In addition, in addition to own fires and gas leaks (11), alarms are displayed for fires and gas leaks in other dwelling units, so a mutual monitoring function is provided to mutually monitor fires and gas leaks between each dwelling unit. Even if a fire or gas leak occurs in one dwelling unit, the occurrence of fire or gas leak in other dwelling units can be detected, so that prompt and appropriate countermeasures can be taken.
